When Smash Mouth released their single "All Star" back in 1999, it was easy to understand why it took the world by storm. The song has an insanely catchy hook, some stellar lyrics and a beachy vibe. But what no one understood back then was that "All Star" was predicting the apparent apocalypse we're experiencing right now in 2017. Don't believe me? Read on for the proof.

"Didn't make sense not to live for fun."

"The ice we skate is getting pretty thin."

"My world's on fire, how about yours?"

Smash Mouth is famously from the state of California, which has been experiencing massive wildfires lately. Their world is on fire, but what about the rest of the country?

"We could all use a little change"

You can't deny the similarity between these lyrics and Barack Obama's 2008 message of change and hope. Where you land on the political spectrum determines if that's a sign of the end of days or not.
